It has been a great year in the realms of all things rock! What better way to celebrate the brilliant new releases of 2025 by counting down our favourites.
Band Background
It is a miracle that Tobias Forge managed to keep his identity hidden for so many years. Especially when you consider how talented he is. For those who don’t know the band Ghost perform entirely in anonymity. With Forge being effectively a solo act with a band. The band touch on occult themes, theatrical imagery with with addictive melodic rock sound. Looking at them and hearing them are truly two very different things. Think of them as metal Abba. It helps that he is from Sweden…
What’s Good About This Album
The “bands” 6th studio album looks at distinct emotional states between each of its tracks. It hit number 1 on the US billboard chart and is their most commercially successful album yet. It blends melodic rock, heavy riffs and arena anthems with sounds that are firmly inspired by the 80s.
Favourite Tracks
This is much more darker than the next song, but blends that with classic rock hooks that hooks you in. Pun intended. The song is a prime example of balancing heaviness with melody, nobody is not singing to that chorus. You should also check out the AMAZING music video for this one.
This was the lead single and contains a chorus that is so catchy it shouldn’t be allowed… This song leans heavily on the 80s rock that spread like wildfire through the world. This is going to sound massive in a stadium one day. It is apparently one of their best songs live too. The song is actually about powerful emotional states (not just demonic possession).
